Lucien SIMON (1861-1945 )The Bathers at Saint-Guénolé, circa 1913{CR }Oil on canvasSigned lower left. Titled "Le Bain" on a label on the back. 62 x 92 cmProvenance : Collection of Monsieur W., Paris. The work will be included in the catalog raisonné of Lucien Simon in preparation by the Lucien Simon Association. Les Baigneuses de Saint-Guénolé, also known as Baigneuses bretonnes dans les rochers or Le Bain was executed in 1913. At that time, the artist was at the peak of a brilliant career and was included in state collections and foreign museums. Our work is a studio composition, probably done in his Paris studio. It is unlikely that the subject was done on the ground, the summer in Bigouden country. The Bathers of Saint-Guénolé was the subject of numerous studies for two larger paintings, one exhibited at the Salon de la Société des Beaux-Arts in 1914, then acquired by the Galerie Bernheim Jeune.
